Currently housed at Cambridge University, the medieval manuscript in modern binding on the right contains the only known extant copy of the "ballad" Robin Hood and the Monk, one of five medieval Robin Hood "ballads" known to have survived. The "ballad" has suffered from significant water damage, and is incomplete. The volumes on the left contain the only known extant copy of the medieval "ballad" Robin Hood and the Potter.
